Are you a good person if you have no capacity for evil?

Which side of this philosophical debate are you on. Is every person who does good deeds a good person or only those who recognize their own capability for evil and still choose to do good. Basically if you don't understand how evil you could be you've never had an opportunity to act on horrible thoughts are you actually a good person? Or are you just someone who hasn't had the chance to unleash the beast inside them. Now I'll pass the blunt

Nothing is inherently good or evil. It's always context dependent.

Good and evil are both subjective, pointless discussion.

If you have 3,000 thoughts a day, there will be a few that are not good.
some woman who has 2,990 thoughts a day that cures cancer in 5 years but will have 10 thoughts a day that are about pinching her assistants arse.

No such thing. There is no good/evil. There is only survival/death. If good deeds will help you survive long enough to propogate your genes then you have succeeded in nature. It’s simply a means to an end

Interesting question, are there deeper implications of each answer?
Tough question, but I'd say yes you're still a good person because you're doing good deeds even if you're aren't capable of not doing good deeds.

The question is answerable even if morality is subjective.
If someone is incapable of behavior you deem evil, would you consider them good?

Excellent, Smithers. Excellent. Our plan has almost come to fruition.
